The Gunners had made an electric start on Tuesday night at the Turk Telekom Arena, with a goal from Lukas Podolski after just two minutes, the German forward making the most of a rare opportunity in the first XI.

Ramsey stroked in a second before his blistering strike on the half hour mark, with the tempo dropping following the restart when the Welshman and Mathieu Flamini had made way for youngsters.

Although Galatasaray scored a late consolation free-kick from Wesley Sneijder, Podolski grabbed a fourth on the break deep into stoppage time to give the English side a memorable victory.

And Ramsey felt the squad owed their under-fire manager a response out in Turkey, with Wenger recently coming into some fierce personal criticism from the club's own supporters.

Every player here wants to work hard for him, we have proven that again here

"Every player here wants to work hard for him, we have proven that again here," Ramsey said.

"He has been under some unfair criticism, but we are all out there, are in it together. We wanted to get the result for us and for him.

"Whenever we go into a game, he knows our qualities, always believes in us and gives us a great feeling.

"Every time we go out there we are representing ourselves, our club and our manager."
